So once GGG beats Lemieux people are gonna throw him in the bushes and retroactively dub him a 'bum' too, right?

Well, Lemieux isn't a bum, but he's nowhere near a Top fighter either.

He's maybe a C+/B- fighter.....at VERY BEST. Just like Andy Lee.

Just because you win a title, especially at Middleweight which is the weakest division in Boxing right now outside of Cruiserweight, doesn't automatically make you a very good fighter.

shyt id even say Lee>>>Lemeuix

Goldenboy should be following the GGG blueprint N build up Lemeuix N his power against Bums

They could get at least two fights for Lemeuix before Canelo defends the WBC he wins from Cotto

Then you got a fattened up hyped up hog with a belt ready for slaughter for Canelo to unify with

You cash out your hype jobs against fighters in your stable NOT to benefit someone else
Do cocaine brehs

what does a key to the city do? do you get free entry and free food everywhere? free rent? what about free gas?

 

[Jello Biafra]

De La Hoya is a fukking idiot if he feeds lemeiux to GGG

I agree, there is money to be made off of Lemieux and rushing into a GGG fight is not a smart promotional move.

It's just an award that The Mayor gives out signifying you've done something/accomplished something to make the entire city proud.

We're talking about Cleveland and Ohio in general breh. Obviously, with as many professional fighters (and top amateurs) we produce, the average citizen does care about Boxing here

i once got told by my jobseekers advisor to take my amateur boxing off my resume because employers dont like it and they will think you are a thug. but im from a country where football (soccer) players are viewed as gods.

Well, I don't know because I've only ever lived here, but as you can see that is Mickey Bey receiving his 2nd "Key To The City" by our Mayor Frank Jackson

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Lightweight champion Mickey Bey (21-1-1, 10 KOs) returned to Cleveland for the first time since he won the IBF lightweight title in 2014 - and his trip was non-stop.

There was time with the family, a visit to the barbershop and a proclamation by Mayor Frank Jackson.

There was also time to make plans for Bey to get back into the ring. Bey, who is fighting under Floyd Mayweather's promotional company, gave up his title a few weeks ago because of a low offer to defend his title in China.

"I got a call from Floyd and told me to continue training hard and be ready," said Bey in a video interview with The Plain Dealer at Ty Barber's Barbershop in downtown Cleveland. "I had to take some time off because of surgery. I should return to the ring in early September."

Bey also talked about a fight here in Cleveland later in the year. Fighting at home brings on a totally different type of motivation.

"Fighting in Las Vegas is cool," said Bey about his current residence. "But I can't wait to fight at home."
